Rasasi Hawas Fire Eau de Parfum is a 2025 release in Rasasi's Hawas collection, built as an aromatic aquatic fragrance that pairs a simple herbal opening with a mineral, ambery base.

What does Hawas Fire smell like?

It opens with clary sage, giving a herbal, slightly earthy first impression. The heart brings in marine notes alongside Egyptian jasmine, combining a salty, oceanic freshness with a warm white floral touch. The base settles into ambergris and mineral amber, giving the fragrance a distinctive salty, mineral-amber finish rather than a typical sweet or woody drydown.

  • Top notes: clary sage
  • Heart notes: marine notes, Egyptian jasmine
  • Base notes: ambergris, mineral amber

Performance and when to wear it

Performance is typically moderate to long-lasting on skin, with the ambergris and mineral amber base giving it good staying power. Its aquatic, salty character makes it a comfortable match for South African summer and beach-adjacent occasions, while also working for everyday daytime wear.

Who is it for?

Anyone who enjoys marine and mineral-amber fragrances rather than sweet or gourmand styles. It is marketed as unisex and suits fans of ambergris-driven scents looking for something distinctive within the wider Hawas range, and it works well as a warm-weather alternative to the sweeter, spicier Hawas variants in the collection more broadly and generally speaking across the whole line.

Frequently asked questions

Is Hawas Fire long-lasting?+

It is typically moderate to long-lasting on skin, with the ambergris and mineral amber base giving it solid staying power once the clary sage and marine opening notes have settled down.

Is Hawas Fire for men or women?+

It is marketed as a unisex eau de parfum for women and men, with an aromatic aquatic profile built around marine notes and mineral amber rather than a strongly gendered composition.

Which size should I buy?+

It is available in a 100ml bottle, a good size for regular wear given the solid performance of the ambergris and amber base, meaning it should last well between reapplications.
